Poverty alleviation monitoring households:
"Public welfare jobs + subsistence allowances" to prevent return to poverty
"I have 4 children to study, my husband is sick and can't work, I can move to such a beautiful house, and also arrange subsistence allowances and jobs. I am really grateful for the good policies of the party and the government. I often say to my children , don’t forget the people who dig wells when you drink water, and you must study hard to repay the country.” 48-year-old Wang Min moved his family to Tongkang Community, Baihe Street, Guanling Buyi and Miao Autonomous County, Anshun City three years ago.
Once, the life of Wang Min's family was "very annoyed".
In 2010, when she and her husband Tang Ximing were working in Fujian, they suddenly received a phone call from her hometown brother-in-law, "Come back quickly, your house has been washed away by a mudslide." When they returned to their hometown, Yalong Village, Shaying Town, the couple saw a flash flood in front of them. After that, the house collapsed and the house was in ruins.
For the rest of the day, the family could only borrow and live in an old house that their relatives didn't live in.
After that, although the couple worked very diligently, they couldn't save enough money to build a new house because of raising their children and other household items.
Fortunately, after the poverty alleviation and relocation work in Guanling was carried out, Wang Min's family, who was a houseless household and a registered poor household at that time, moved into a new house in 2019.
The house is located on the first floor, with an area of 120 square meters and a total of 4 rooms. The wardrobes, cabinets, tables, chairs and electrical appliances are all available in the house. The rooms are also newly painted.

After moving into the new house, Tang Ximing suffered a cerebral infarction in June 2019 and was treated in Anshun People's Hospital for a month. The cerebral infarction also affected his intelligence and made him unable to work anymore. The burden of the family rested on Wang Min.
Just when Wang Min was at a loss, the staff of Baihe Street quickly detected the risk of their family returning to poverty and arranged corresponding public welfare positions.
Wang Min told reporters: "After the community knew about my family's situation, they first arranged for me to be a coordinator of the community, with a monthly salary of 1,360 yuan, and then arranged for me to clean in the community health center for 900 yuan per month. , Everyone in our family has arranged a minimum living allowance of more than 600 yuan per person, which is more than 3,000 yuan a month. This way my life is more secure. "
Wang Min’s family has 4 children. The eldest daughter is going to college. Because she is a poverty alleviation monitoring household, the school has waived 3,500 yuan in tuition. She also applied for a student loan. Currently, her monthly living expenses are more than 1,000 yuan. Free, living expenses of about 600 yuan per month; the third and fourth children are studying in elementary school at the door of the house, and they all eat and live at home. Tang Ximing needs more than 300 yuan per month to see a doctor.

The local training coach told reporters that from 2021 to the present, they have opened 5 forklift and excavator training courses. After the trainees get the certificates, they will help them introduce the work.

Lu Jinbang is a relocated household of Xingyang Homestead for poverty alleviation.
After "into the city" and moving into a new home, their family's life became more and more prosperous, and they gradually adapted to the new life of "new citizens".
On the eve of May Day this year, an accident frightened her family.
It turned out that one day at the end of April this year, Lu Jinbang's 3-year-old child was playing in the community as usual. In the afternoon, she suddenly found that the child was missing, and the whole family was anxious.
They immediately mobilized relatives and friends to help find it, and community cadres and grid workers also joined in after learning about it, but they found nothing.
Just when we were at a loss, everyone suddenly thought that the community had just installed a monitoring system, which could monitor the situation of the entire community 24 hours a day without any dead ends.
"I saw the baby walking alone through surveillance, and then the security took him to the duty room." Xingyang Home Community staff told reporters that at that time, adults were looking for children, and children were looking for adults.

On August 4th, the reporter walked into the day care center for elders and children in Baiyanglin Street, Qixingguan District, Bijie. There were 7 elders sitting around a long table and resting next to a large bookcase. One of them stayed. Li Shouguo, an old man with a long beard and a red dress, is watching "Idiom Solitaire".
When talking about the changes in relocation for poverty alleviation and relocation, Li Shouguo said with a smile: "This place is much better than his hometown. You can read books and play chess. Every day there is a dining hall for the elderly where you can have lunch. The meals are also delicious. Spending 3 yuan is much more cost-effective than eating at home."
Chen Qiong, a support cadre from Tianhe District, Guangzhou, told reporters that the canteen for the elderly is a cooperative assistance project between the East and the West, and it transplanted the experience of the canteen for the elderly in Guangzhou to Bijie.
Here, the elderly only need to pay 3 yuan for lunch, and the rest is subsidized by the East-West Cooperation Fund and other funds.
While the reporter was chatting with the old man, the waiter in the dining hall for the elderly came to register the information, and the old people took out the cash they had prepared earlier and handed it to her.
The dining hall opened on time at 12 o'clock. I saw that there were 2 servings of dry pot cauliflower meat slices, 2 servings of bean curd and a large pot of rice for lunch that day, and 7 elderly people ate happily together.

In Wu Jianxiang's opinion, the two younger brothers were more obedient than before when they went to the Sunshine Children's Service Station. "For example, the social worker sister will be reasonable after the younger brother makes a mistake, and they will listen to them now."
